Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA
The Cowboys bled value on every deal, hence the D.

Nobody had Jaylan Ford this high, and it is not close. The Cowboys reached 43 spots to get him at the Round 5 slot.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They will answer for taking edge rusher early while tight end went begging.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Fashanu pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In slot 23 they get a building block for the line, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick24 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a bendy edge with upside at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick27 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 27th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A reach on T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot; the board had better options right there. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick56 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
They paid sticker price for Xavier Worthy in pick 56, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in the 64th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick71 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A conviction pick on Trey Benson at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick No. 87 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
A curious use of the 93rd overall pick. Tight end needed the pick; an edge rusher in Gabriel Murphy did not.
Pick95 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in the 95th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in pick 108 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick145 Rnd5 Hunter Nourzad
They liked Hunter Nourzad enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 145. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
A real head-scratcher, Marist Liufau in slot 147 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They talked themselves into Jaylan Ford at Round 5, Pick 26, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick174 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at slot 174. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick216 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Miyan Williams. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
